Plant Life Cycle Project

We are creating PowerPoints to show the stages in the plant life cycle.  I have asked the kids to be creative!  They are working with a partner.  The document is a shared document, meaning both partners can work on it at the same time from different locations.  Each group has their own link to their PowerPoint. I am including the links.  We will be going to the computer lab to work on this, but many of the kids wanted to work on it at home.  Please help to ensure that they are on the link with their name by it.

Thanks for your support,
Mrs. Nelson

Upcoming events:

·         April 5^th: Spring Egg Hunt-K-2^nd grade will be participating in an egg hunt at the Little People Park on Walton between 10am-11am.  We are asking each student to bring in 12 plastic eggs filled with candy, and taped shut.  Please do not send any chocolates as they can melt and become a mess!  We will need a couple of parent volunteers to help us hide eggs at the park, and supervise the egg hunt.  Please email Mrs. Mcgovern amcgovern@harmonytx.org if you would like to help!  All filled eggs should be brought to school by Wednesday, April 4^th.
